Thorlund, Kristian, Devereaux, P J, Wetterslev, Jørn, Guyatt, Gordon, Ioannidis, John P A, Thabane, Lehana, ...

Likely country of origin in publications on randomised controlled trials and controlled clinical trials during the last 60 years (2007)

Gluud, Christian, Nikolova, Dimitrinka

Abstract Background The number of publications on clinical trials is unknown as well as the countries publishing most trial reports. To try to examine these questions we performed an ecological...
